Pieced by Christina Reitz, Quilted & bound by Leann McClain |
With the exception of #1, #20, and #19, all of the quilts below are of my own design and inspiration. #1 was my
first quilt, a baby gift for my new granddaughter in 2011, and I used a pattern for that one. #20 was pieced by my daughter,
Christina, #25 was based on a very tiny quilt pattern but colors changed and much was added, #19 was a quilt top found at
a Pennsylvania yard sale and gifted to me barren of any embellishment. I added appliqué, lace, and scalloped the border to
make the designs pop. All others pictured in this gallery are made without a pattern, by improvisation. I find
it gratifying to come up with new creations from my imagination. Click on each quilt for a closer
view.
